How does the skill handle .gitignore safety?

The skill runs a safety check to ensure the worktree directory is ignored. If it's not, it follows the 'fix broken things immediately' rule by adding the directory to your .gitignore and committing the change automatically.

What is a Git worktree and why use this skill?

A Git worktree allows you to have multiple branches checked out at the same time in separate directories. This skill automates the setup, ensuring your workspace is correctly ignored by Git and ready with all dependencies installed.

What happens if the baseline tests fail?

The skill will report the failures immediately and ask for your explicit permission to proceed, ensuring you don't start work on a broken baseline.

Does it support my programming language?

Yes, it features auto-detection for popular ecosystems including Node.js (package.json), Rust (Cargo.toml), Python (requirements.txt/poetry), and Go (go.mod).

Can I use a global directory for all my worktrees?

Absolutely. If no local directory is found, the skill allows you to choose between a project-local hidden directory or a global location in your user config.

開発者ツール

Creates and manages isolated Git worktrees with automated setup and safety verification for seamless multi-branch development.

The Isolated Git Worktree Manager skill streamlines the process of starting new feature work by setting up isolated workspaces, allowing developers to work on multiple branches simultaneously without workspace conflicts. It follows a systematic directory selection process, ensures worktree paths are properly ignored in Git to prevent repository pollution, automatically installs project dependencies for various languages, and runs baseline tests to guarantee a clean starting state before implementation begins.
